#96 Auto refresh forces pointer to top of list

[Anonymous]

I have the program "motion" on a camera, if there is
motion which creates new files and gqview is open in
the directory where the jpgs are stored, the automatic
refresh will sometimes force the pointer on the left
side to move to the top of the jpg list.

It does this mostly when I am clicking in the picture
window (as "next") so it should move to the next
picture. It will do it sometimes when I click in the
left side to select another picture.

Yes, I can turn automatic update off but then I have to
click on refresh all the time, the auto update is nice
to have.

Can you somehow hold the "next" click until the auto
update is done?

Another thing I have seen is it will show a blank
(grey) nothing for the "next" picture when it's
updating (not as above, it stays in the proper list
place), even though there was another "next" file
available before the update started.

Thanks, it's a fine program.

Does this still occur with any GQview 2.0 release?
